How to setup pyrollbar with Django | Support Level: Supported
Django
There are two options for installing the Rollbar middleware. Both options
require modifying your settings.py
file.
The first option is to use
'rollbar.contrib.django.middleware.RollbarNotifierMiddleware'
which will
report all exceptions to Rollbar including 404s. This middlware should be
placed as the last item in your middleware list which is:
-
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES
in Django 1.9 and earlier:MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = [ # ... other middleware classes ... 'rollbar.contrib.django.middleware.RollbarNotifierMiddleware', ]
-
MIDDLEWARE
in Django 1.10 and up:MIDDLEWARE = [ # ... other middleware classes ... 'rollbar.contrib.django.middleware.RollbarNotifierMiddleware', ]
The other option is to use the two separate middlewares:
-
'rollbar.contrib.django.middleware.RollbarNotifierMiddlewareExcluding404'
-
'rollbar.contrib.django.middleware.RollbarNotifierMiddlewareOnly404'
The Excluding404
middleware should be placed as the last item in your middleware
list, and the Only404
middleware should be placed as the first item in your
middleware list. This allows 404s to be processed by your other middlewares
before sendind an item to Rollbar. Therefore if you handle the 404 differently
in a way that returns a response early you won't end up with a Rollbar item.
Regardless of which method you use, you also should add a section to settings.py
with configuration data such as:
ROLLBAR = {
'access_token': 'POST_SERVER_ITEM_ACCESS_TOKEN',
'environment': 'development' if DEBUG else 'production',
'branch': 'master',
'root': '/absolute/path/to/code/root',
}
Additionally, you can use the key 'ignorable_404_urls'
to set an iterable of regular expression
patterns to use to determine whether a 404 exception should be ignored based
on the full url path for the request. For example,
import re
ROLLBAR = {
'access_token': 'POST_SERVER_ITEM_ACCESS_TOKEN',
'environment': 'development' if DEBUG else 'production',
'branch': 'master',
'root': '/absolute/path/to/code/root',
'ignorable_404_urls': (
re.compile('/index\.php'),
re.compile('/foobar'),
),
}
If you're using Django REST Framework and would like to have parsed POST variables placed in your output for exception handling, then add these configuration variables in settings.py
:
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
'EXCEPTION_HANDLER': 'rollbar.contrib.django_rest_framework.post_exception_handler'
}
Be sure to replace POST_SERVER_ITEM_ACCESS_TOKEN
with your project's post_server_item
access token, which you can find in the Rollbar.com interface.
Check out the Django example.
If you'd like to be able to use a Django LOGGING
handler that could catch errors that happen outside of the middleware and ship them to Rollbar, such as in celery job queue tasks that run in the background separate from web requests, do the following:
Add this to the handlers
key:
'rollbar': {
'filters': ['require_debug_false'],
'access_token': 'POST_SERVER_ITEM_ACCESS_TOKEN',
'environment': 'production',
'class': 'rollbar.logger.RollbarHandler'
},
Then add the handler to the loggers
key values where you want it to fire off.
'myappwithtasks': {
'handlers': ['console', 'logfile', 'rollbar'],
'level': 'DEBUG',
'propagate': True,
},
